Stefan Struve diagnosed with heart condition

On Tuesday's episode of UFC Tonight, it was reported that Stefan Struve has been diagnosed with a leaking aortic valve, as well an enlarged heart. Struve is currently in good spirits but is still waiting to see if he will be able to resume his promising MMA career.

Hopefully he does not retire. He is not championship material but he is a solid fighter.
Semmy Schilt retired recently also because of some heart issues, but damn, Schilt is 40 or something like that. Struve is much younger.

Saw this tonight. Absolutely horrible for such a talented fighter. Hopefully the meds fix the issue, or that surgery helps him recover fully, and gives him not only a long healthy career but life as well.

One of the most promising fighters I have seen,and just brought up the wrong way. If he takes 1-2 years off to get surgery and heal 100% it would do wonders for him. He would mature,listen to his corner,fill in his frame and learn to utilize his tools all the more, he could come back and make a great run, almost no reason he ever should get hit in a fight, I hate to say this,but he should do some work with Tim Sylvia, he could offer some insight for sure.
